Abstract
We consider dynamic assignment of a single channel in a linear cellular arr ay, and derive closed-form expressions for the blocking probability of hand over calls and new calls in terms of the array size and traffic load assumi ng a Markov traffic model. Handover and new call blocking performance in th e limit of large arrays and extreme traffic loads is also determined.
